After COVID, I stopped hosting in-person Producer & Songwriter Camps mainly because all of our recording studio partners went out of business after the lock down. Hosting these events was my passion and my direct way of helping music creatives, in-person, in the same environment I learned from and grew up in.
Shortly after, I sold majority ownership of Monster Sessions, mainly for health reasons, and me feeling like I wasn’t the best CEO to drive revenue to the company, being that I never had a large business vision for Monster Sessions to begin with.
In 2025, the company that took over Monster Sessions, gave it back to me, so I’ve been working the past year on creating a proper business foundation for Monster Sessions to grow to help thousands of aspiring music professionals every year in some of the most prestigious recording facilities in the country.

Every year since 2017, I have partnered with local universities to support students who are preparing for life after college.
Through career events, workshops, guest lectures and industry presentations, I provide students with practical insights that help bridge the gap between classroom education and what they will experience in the real world.
My outreach efforts have included partnerships and participation with the following schools: USC, UCLA, Loyola Marymount, Cal Poly Pomona, Chapman University, UC Irvine, UC Santa Barbara & Arizona State.
My goal has always been to help students to leave college with greater confidence, clearer direction and a realistic perspective on how to best prepare for jobs and career opportunities.
Your support helps me to continue expanding these educational partnerships and reaching more students throughout Southern California.

I believe music education should begin early.
I plan to host my first youth-focused camp this year, introducing middle-high school students to the professional processes of Modern Recording Arts, which will include: Music Production, Songwriting, Creativity, Teamwork & Collaboration, Music Business and music technology in a positive & encouraging in-studio learning environment.
These programs are designed to help young students to develop confidence, communication & collaboration skills, creative & critical thinking and a lifelong appreciation for music.
Support from my communities will help to expand access to these educational opportunities for young students.

For more than 20 years, I’ve dedicated my career to music, education and helping aspiring music creatives develop the proper skills, mindset and professional values needed to succeed in the music industry.
Your support helps fund programs, upcoming events, scholarships and educational initiatives designed to create opportunities for the next generation of music creatives.
Every contribution you guys make, regardless of size, helps me to continue building meaningful experiences for students, artists and future music professionals.Many of these initiatives are developed independently and require significant time, energy, planning, travel, resources and personal financial investment.
By contributing, you are helping to create educational opportunities, support future music professionals and preserve the values of creativity, discipline, respect and excellence within music culture.
For anyone that has already contributed in the past, YOU KNOW how much I appreciate all of you, even when I was just streaming and all of my offline initiatives were inactive or paused.
